About me:I am enthusiastic, positive, motivated and love to be involved. My career mission is to make great contributions providing vision and leadership in communications. My 28 years of professional communications, multimedia and graphic design experience includes extensive understanding of marketing, graphic design, media relations, and multimedia principles and practices. As well, I’ve developed expertise in project management, training, supervision and leadership. I am a graduate from West Virginia University and hold two bachelor degrees in both Advertising and Graphic Design. Through my education and work with WVU Student Graphic Design studio, I’ve obtained advanced knowledge of Multimedia production in areas of visual, web, interaction and information design.During my current position with WVU Extension (15 years) and APIS Creative (2 years), I have contributed both as a Senior Graphic Designer and Creative Director. My experience with both includes managing production timelines, collaborating with various vendors to ensure budget and printing success, as well as creating and editing educational materials, newsletters, brochures, advertisements, posters, fact sheets, presentations, exhibits and promotional items designed to exceed client expectations. My husband, Keith and I, thoroughly enjoy living and working in Morgantown. Together we raise our beautiful, bright and sometimes silly, 10 years old daughter, Charlotte.
